Notes

Mentha would have been just eighteen when she attended Bilbo's famous Party, and thirty-six when the Shire was afflicted by the worst troubles of the War of the Ring. Most likely she lived through these times, but we have no definite records of her life beyond the Farewell Party in III 3001.

Since all the known members of Mentha's branch of the family were among the guests at Bilbo'sParty, it seems reasonable to assume that her mother was also invited. As a minor branch of the Brandybucks, however, we have little detail about Mentha's immediate family, and no specific mention of her mother at all.
